easy .. last name "Madalone" (ancestors from 'Maddaloni, Italy') .... I've always been very active with our children through the years, and my sons high school friends started calling me that when we played softball together... I've also been called Big Tony (6'2", high 200's), and a number of years ago my son nicknamed me Big Dog, as a compliment, ( "if you can't run with the big dogs....") ...
Good thread ....
